Opening for Joe Walsh (The Eagles, James Gang, Barnstorm), the band played a 50-minute set consisting of many songs from their fifth and all acoustic album, “Ballyhoo!”

Dolan explained to the audience that the title track was taken from carny slang of the American West. Merriam-Webster defines Ballyhoo as “talk or writing that is designed to get people excited or interested in something” and the band did just that throughout their performance. Dolan even played the part of carnival barker donning an old felt top-hat and velveteen jacket, pulling a stuffed rabbit from his hat and growling his lyrics at the audience in a playful way.

The audience was appreciative of the rhythms of “Ballyhoo,” “Better Find a Church,” and even a closing cover of Little Feat’s “Let it Roll” as Pelton segued from the washboard into the skins on “Wipe Out.”

The band demonstrated their gift for Americana and New-Orleans style roots music on songs such as “I Know, You Know, I Know” and the seemingly Bon Jovi-styled “Perdition,” which was used in the Natalie Portman film “Jane Got a Gun.”

Their music has been featured on AMC’s “Hell on Wheels,” as well as several other films including “Hurricane Season” and “St Vincent.”

The band have toured with The Eagles, Keith Urban, The Dixie Chicks, and The Allman Brothers.
